federal health services to the American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/
AN) people. Our

[[Page 17483]]

mission is to raise the physical, mental, social, and spiritual health 
of AI/ANs to the highest level.
    The Indian Healthcare Improvement Act (https://www.ihs.gov/IHCIA/), 
Public Law 94-437. 25 U.S.C. 1616g (https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/USCODE-2022-title25/html/USCODE-2022-title25-chap18-subchapI-sec1616g.htm) authorizes the IHS to administer programs designed to 
attract and recruit qualified Indians into health professions and to 
ensure the availability of health professionals to serve the AI/AN 
population.
Purpose
    The purpose of this program is to add to the number of Indian 
health professionals serving Indians by encouraging Indians to enter 
the health professions and removing barriers to serving Indians.
Allowable Activities
    1. Provide outreach and recruitment of people to serve Indian 
communities in the health professions. Include recruitment and outreach 
at elementary and secondary schools as well as community colleges 
located on Indian reservations that your program will serve.
    2. Incorporate a program advisory board of representatives from the 
Tribes and communities you will serve.
    3. Provide summer preparatory programs for Indian students who need 
enrichment in the subjects of math and science needed to pursue 
training in the health professions.
    4. Provide tutoring, counseling, and support to students who are 
enrolled in a health career program of study at your college or 
university.
    5. Employ qualified Indians in the program, to the maximum extent 
feasible. Describe the college or university's ability to meet this 
requirement.
    6. Address the opioid crisis, which is an HHS priority, by 
educating and training students in opioid addiction prevention, 
treatment, and recovery.

Risk Review
    Before making an award, we review the risk that you will not 
prudently manage federal funds. We need to make sure you've handled any 
past federal awards well and demonstrated sound business practices. We 
use SAM.gov Responsibility/Qualification (https://sam.gov/content/entity-information) to check this history for all awards likely to be 
over $250K. You can comment on your organization's information in 
SAM.gov. We will consider your comments before making a decision about 
your level of risk.
    If we find a significant risk, we may choose not to fund your 
application or to place specific conditions on the award.
    For more details, see 45 CFR 75.205 (https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-45/subtitle-A/subchapter-A/part-75/subpart-C/section-75.205).
Selection Process
    When making funding decisions, we consider:
     Merit review results. These are key in making decisions 
but are not the only factor.
     The larger portfolio of agency-funded projects, including 
the diversity of project types and geographic distribution.
     The past performance of the applicant. We may choose not 
to fund applicants with management or financial problems.

[[Page 17486]]

    We may:
     Fund applications in whole or in part.
     Fund applications at a lower amount than requested.
     Decide not to allow a prime recipient to subaward if they 
may not be able to monitor and manage subrecipients properly.
     Choose to fund no applications under this NOFO.
Award Notices
    After we review and select applications for award, we will let you 
know the outcome.
Unsuccessful Applications
    We will email you or write you a letter if your application is 
disqualified or unsuccessful.
Approved But Unfunded Applications
    It is possible that we could approve your application, but do not 
have enough funds to reach it. If so, we will hold your application for 
one year. If funding becomes available during the year, we may 
reconsider funding.
Approved Applications
    If you are successful, we will create a Notice of Award (NoA). You 
will need a GrantSolutions user account (https://www.grantsolutions.gov/home/getting-started-request-a-user-account/) to 
retrieve your NoA.
    The NoA is the only official award document. The NoA tells you 
about the amount of the award, important dates, and the terms and 
conditions you need to follow. Until you receive the NoA, you do not 
have permission to start work.

VIII. Step 6: Learn What Happens After Award

Post-Award Requirements and Administration

Administrative and National Policy Requirements
    There are important rules you need to know if you get an award. You 
must follow:
     All terms and conditions in the Notice of Award.
     The regulations listed in 45 CFR part 75, Uniform 
Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements 
for HHS Awards (https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-45/subtitle-A/subchapter-A/part-75).
     The HHS Grants Policy Statement (GPS) (https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/grants/grants/policies-regulations/hhsgps107.pdf). This document has terms and conditions tied to your 
award. If there are any exceptions to the GPS, they will be listed in 
your Notice of Award.
     All federal statutes and regulations relevant to federal 
financial assistance, including those highlighted in the HHS 
Administrative and National Policy Requirements (https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/hhs-administrative-national-policy-requirements.pdf).
Reporting
    If you are successful, you will have to submit financial and 
performance reports and possibly reports on specific types of 
activities. Your NoA will outline the specific requirements and 
deadlines. To learn more about reporting, see:

 Performance Progress Reports
 Progress Report Requirements
 Financial Reporting

    If your award includes funds for a conference, you must submit a 
report for all conferences.
    If you do not submit your reports on time, we could:

 Suspend or terminate your award
 Withhold payments
 Move you to a reimbursement payment method
 Withhold future awards
 Take other enforcement actions
 Impose special award conditions if the situation continues
Non-Discrimination and Assurance
    If you receive an award, you must follow all applicable 
nondiscrimination laws. You agree to this when you register in SAM.gov. 
You must also submit an Assurance of Compliance (HHS-690) (https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/form-hhs690.pdf). To learn more, see 
the Laws and Regulations Enforced by the HHS Office for Civil Rights 
(https://www.hhs.gov/civil-rights/for-providers/laws-regulations-guidance/laws/index.html).
